The Kilpatrick Limit, also known as the Kilpatrick's number or the K-factor, is a concept in the field of river mechanics and hydrology. It refers to the maximum slope (gradient) of a river channel that can be sustained without causing sediment to be transported or eroded. Specifically, it is often used to evaluate the stability of riverbanks and channels under varying flows.
